"Hey Family...I thank you all for all your
prayers...God heard you!!!," he wrote. "My doctor was a little
surprised that I was stronger than anticipated for an old fat fart replacing a
knee. He said he knew the knee was bad but after opening me up it was much
worse than he thought, but God is good! "I passed the test and was released
a day earlier! I'm in a little pain which is expected after a major surgery but
I started [therapy] this morning and on my way to recovery! Thanks for your
prayers and words of encouragement! Love y'all!!! #thepowerofprayer
